Love Aaj Kal !!!

Today morning i happened to read an article
" http://epaper.timesofindia.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref=VE9JSC8yMDA5LzExLzI3I0FyMDI2MDE=&Mode=HTML&Locale=english-skin-custom " ...
and it says boys are faster than gals in saying the L word, this is what gals prefer coming it from a boy and this is what their elders always teach them as a part of culture and tradition.....
it also gives some stats that boys take 7 months to say it and gals take 8 months ..... that makes boys faster in the race of love.....

but lets say a gal has completed her quota of 8 months and the guy she likes has not yet reciprocated..... will it be wrong in this situation if the gal takes the lead and proposes the boy.....
will this love story bloom....
logically it should.... but generally we hav seen it doesnot..... if gals become a lil too frank in matter of love and like.....

y is it so that we dont approve of gals proposing ?
(if you say you do, then ask the same question again after 5 minutes and you will realise you dont ^_^ , thats the irony of life , we act differently than what we say)

there are many instances in our mythology and history where we read of "Swayamvar" ....
it was an oppurtunity given to gal to search herself a worthy husband....
be it "Ram" proving his might with the "Shiv Dhanusha" or "Arjun" with his "Gandiv" ..we hav heard of many instances like this one where "Subhadra" (sister of krishna) decides to flee away with "Arjuna".....

if that could happen in the era of bows and arrows and if a women's feelings were respected then...
y not now when its the era of Rocket science and when gals fly planes.....
Why do we dont approve of gals stating the "L" letter word first then her male counterpart....
The boy has also proved his might not by "brekaing a shiv dhanusha" but by proving himself to be loving , caring, matured, sensible and financially stable person (believe me these are the tests to pass in the modern world)......

I think... the boy should feel proud that he is worhty enough to Woo a lady... and has proved himself to be a worhy husband ...
